Replaced 14 days early due to hamstring strain


[https://penposh.com/blogs/62913/Otani-mega-contract-imminent-Final-negotiations-with-five-clubs-including Lee Jeong-hoo] (San Francisco Giants), who is taking a break due to left hamstring (back muscle) pain, is expected to return to the field next week.


According to [https://penposh.com/blogs/62917/Tiger-Woods-recovers-in-2nd-round-of-Hero-World-Challenge MLB.com], the official Major League website, on the 17th (Korean time), San Francisco manager Bob Melvin said, “Lee Jung-hoo is scheduled to return in the middle of next week.”


Lee Jeong-hoo started as the number one hitter and center fielder in an exhibition game against the Cincinnati Reds on the 14th and recorded 1 hit in 1 at-bat, 1 walk, and 1 run.


While showing good batting pace, he felt tightness in his hamstring and was replaced early. At the time, coach Melvin explained Lee Jeong-hoo’s condition by saying, “I felt a little stiffness in the back of my leg,” adding, “It’s not a big problem. “I didn’t want to force him to play too much because there was no game on the 15th,” he said.


As Lee Jeong-hoo continues to feel uncomfortable even after a day of rest, San Francisco is restricting his baseball activities for 2-3 days and further monitoring his condition.


Lee Jung-hoo, who played in the [https://penposh.com/blogs/62905/Cunningham-s-31-points-and-8-assists-were-also-ineffective KBO League] until last year, signed a six-year contract worth $113 million (about 150.5 billion won) with San Francisco ahead of the 2024 season. San Francisco selected Lee Jung-hoo, who was brought in with a large contract, as the team's starting player this season and is thoroughly managing him.


Lee Jeong-hoo did not play in the beginning of the exhibition game due to mild side pain. Meanwhile, Lee Jeong-hoo is recording a batting average of 0.348 (8 hits in 23 at-bats), 1 home run, 3 RBI, 4 runs, and 1 stolen base in this year's exhibition games. [https://www.gostopsite.com 고스톱]
